I'm going to run some numbers for you this morning.
Yesterday was 2 minutes and 9 seconds longer than the day before.
I have had 4 hours of sleep, bringing me to a total of 10 for the week.
The windchill right now is -50 and once again I'm keeping myself and the children home. The school buses are not running, it would be an academic throwaway day for them anyway so we may as well be home and indoors. Even though by 2 pm they will be insane. By 4pm I will be.
Oh, wait. Nevermind.
Lochlan's flight leaves in 35 minutes. Last night he stayed here, since I live closest to the runway and he wanted extra time. I wanted extra time. We won't see each other again until April and so it had to end on good terms at least but it isn't anymore because we can't seem to agree on anything save for the fact that we want to remain close, probably for different reasons, so yeah, I won't attempt to explain it to the world at large.
Seth leaves tomorrow at 12. Hopefully second time is the charm for Ben. Cross your fingers.
My house will hold 4 people once again instead of 6.
I'm up to 17 on my apocalypse list for 2009. I need to get to 100 and then I'll post it. Notice you've never heard about it before, since I've never gotten to 100. It's the list of all the things you want to accomplish before the apocalypse and each year that the apocalypse fails to occur, you must make a new list. Some people call them '100 things to do before I die' lists. Everything has an apocalypse-spin here instead (even the cupcakes). But with regard to the list, PJ was at 100 in less than 15 minutes flat. I believe it's a list of 99 celebrities he wants to sleep with, and me.
Finally, I am 1 cup of coffee short of a full attention span and working on changing that as we speak.
Tomorrow I'll be writing from work because unfortunately the world does not stop for cold snaps. Not like in my universe, anyway. The one with yearly almost-apocalypses, sleepless nights, frozen intentions and revolving doors.
And Sesame Street. Because if you're home and it's early, you may as well catch up on vintage muppet goodness.
